Enhancing terminal erythroid differentiation in human embryonic stem cells through TRIB3 overexpression. Heliyon 2024; 10:e37463. [PMID: 39309892 PMCID: PMC11415673 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2024.e37463] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/14/2024] [Revised: 09/02/2024] [Accepted: 09/04/2024] [Indexed: 09/25/2024] Open
Abstract
Tribbles pseudokinase 3 (TRIB3) expression significantly increases during terminal erythropoiesis in vivo. However, we found that TRIB3 expression remained relatively low during human embryonic stem cell (hESC) erythropoiesis, particularly in the late stage, where it is typically active. TRIB3 was expressed in megakaryocyte-erythrocyte progenitor cells and its low expression was necessary for megakaryocyte differentiation. Thus, we proposed that the high expression during late stage of erythropoiesis could be the clue for promotion of maturation of hESC-derived erythroid cells. To our knowledge, the role of TRIB3 in the late stage of erythropoiesis remains ambiguous. To address this, we generated inducible TRIB3 overexpression hESCs, named TRIB3tet-on OE H9, based on a Tet-On system. Then, we analyzed hemoglobin expression, condensed chromosomes, organelle clearance, and enucleation with or without doxycycline treatment. TRIB3tet-on OE H9 cells generated erythrocytes with a high proportion of orthochromatic erythroblast in flow cytometry, enhanced hemoglobin and related protein expression in Western blot, decreased nuclear area size, promoted enucleation rate, decreased lysosome and mitochondria number, more colocalization of LC3 with LAMP1 (lysosome marker) and TOM20 (mitochondria marker) and up-regulated mitophagy-related protein expression after treatment with 2 μg/mL doxycycline. Our results showed that TRIB3 overexpression during terminal erythropoiesis may promote the maturation of erythroid cells. Therefore, our study delineates the role of TRIB3 in terminal erythropoiesis, and reveals TRIB3 as a key regulator of UPS and downstream mitophagy by ensuring appropriate mitochondrial clearance during the compaction of chromatin.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Over the last century, the diseases associated with macrocytic anemia have been changing with more patients currently having hematological diseases including malignancies and myelodysplastic syndrome. The intracellular mechanisms underlying the development of anemia with macrocytosis can help in understanding normal erythropoiesis. Adaptations to these diseases involving erythroid progenitor and precursor cells lead to production of fewer but larger red blood cells, and understanding these mechanisms can provide information for possible treatments. RECENT FINDINGS Both inherited and acquired bone marrow diseases involving primarily impaired or delayed erythroid cell division or secondary adaptions to basic erythroid cellular deficits that results in prolonged cell division frequently present with macrocytic anemia. SUMMARY OF FINDINGS In marrow failure diseases, large accumulations of iron and heme in early stages of erythroid differentiation make cells in those stages especially susceptible to death, but the erythroid cells that can survive the early stages of terminal differentiation yield fewer but larger erythrocytes that are recognized clinically as macrocytic anemia. Other disorders that limit deoxynucleosides required for DNA synthesis affect a broader range of erythropoietic cells, but they also lead to macrocytic anemia. The source of macrocytosis in other diseases remains uncertain.

Abstract
The contribution of electron microscopy, and here, in particular transmission electron microscopy (TEM), to the formulation and understanding of the biological action of drug delivery systems has led to a better insight into the design principles of drug delivery systems. TEM can be applied for particle characterization, for the visualization of the uptake and intracellular pathways of drug vehicles in cells and tissues and more recently can be also applied for the high-resolution investigation of drug-receptor interactions with near-atomic resolution. This chapter introduces basic techniques to optimize imaging quality of soft matter samples, highlights possibilities to study certain aspects of drug delivery applications, and finally provides a short introduction to high-resolution characterization possibilities which recently emerged.

Abstract
Hypoxia leads to metabolic changes at the cellular, tissue, and organismal levels. The molecular mechanisms for controlling physiological changes during hypoxia have not yet been fully studied. Erythroid cells are essential for adjusting the rate of erythropoiesis and can influence the development and differentiation of immune cells under normal and pathological conditions. We simulated high-altitude hypoxia conditions for mice and assessed the content of erythroid nucleated cells in the spleen and bone marrow under the existing microenvironment. For a pure population of CD71+ erythroid cells, we assessed the production of cytokines and the expression of genes that regulate the immune response. Our findings show changes in the cellular composition of the bone marrow and spleen during hypoxia, as well as changes in the composition of the erythroid cell subpopulations during acute hypoxic exposure in the form of a decrease in orthochromatophilic erythroid cells that are ready for rapid enucleation and the accumulation of their precursors. Cytokine production normally differs only between organs; this effect persists during hypoxia. In the bone marrow, during hypoxia, genes of the C-lectin pathway are activated. Thus, hypoxia triggers the activation of various adaptive and compensatory mechanisms in order to limit inflammatory processes and modify metabolism.

Abstract
Recent evidence has shown significant roles of mitochondria-derived vesicles (MDVs) in mitochondrial quality control (MQC) system. Under mild stress condition, MDVs are formed to carry the malfunctioned mitochondrial components, such as mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA), peptides, proteins and lipids, to be eliminated to restore normal mitochondrial structure and functions. Under severe oxidative stress condition, mitochondrial dynamics (fission/fusion) and mitophagy are predominantly activated to rescue mitochondrial structure and functions. Additionally, MDVs generation can be also triggered as the major MQC machinery to cope with unhealthy mitochondria when mitophagy is unsuccessful for eliminating the damaged mitochondria or mitochondrial fission/fusion fail to recover the mitochondrial structure and functions. This review summarizes the current knowledge on MDVs and discuss their roles in physiologic and pathophysiologic conditions. In addition, the potential clinical relevance of MDVs in therapeutics and diagnostics of kidney stone disease (KSD) are emphasized.

Mitochondria-Associated Endoplasmic Reticulum Membranes: Inextricably Linked with Autophagy Process. OXIDATIVE MEDICINE AND CELLULAR LONGEVITY 2022; 2022:7086807.

Abstract
Mitochondria-associated membranes (MAMs), physical connection sites between the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and the outer mitochondrial membrane (OMM), are involved in numerous cellular processes, such as calcium ion transport, lipid metabolism, autophagy, ER stress, mitochondria morphology, and apoptosis. Autophagy is a highly conserved intracellular process in which cellular contents are delivered by double-membrane vesicles, called autophagosomes, to the lysosomes for destruction and recycling. Autophagy, typically triggered by stress, eliminates damaged or redundant protein molecules and organelles to maintain regular cellular activity. Dysfunction of MAMs or autophagy is intimately associated with various diseases, including aging, cardiovascular, infections, cancer, multiple toxic agents, and some genetic disorders. Increasing evidence has shown that MAMs play a significant role in autophagy development and maturation. In our study, we concentrated on two opposing functions of MAMs in autophagy: facilitating the formation of autophagosomes and inhibiting autophagy. We recognized the link between MAMs and autophagy in the occurrence and progression of the diseases and therefore collated and summarized the existing intrinsic molecular mechanisms. Furthermore, we draw attention to several crucial data and open issues in the area that may be helpful for further study.
